Well ironiclly my mothers 98 jeep did the same thing but only when you hit a bump a certain way. the solution was new sway bar mount bushings. they are relitivly easy to replace just have to be careful.

You should look under your Jeep while a buddy goes from drive to reverse, or whatever it is that makes it happen. If it is popping most likely you will see something move.
